After blowing their 1st rd pick on Jordan Love, the Packers actually did a really good job with their 2nd and 3rd rd picks getting Rodgers some help. Both of those are really good picks who will contribute early. RB AJ Dillon and TE/H-Back Josiah Deagura. They’ll get production day one out of both those guys. 

Just astonishing to me how they WASTED that 1st rd pick on Love and another pick to move up to get Love.

They couldn’t stop the run for shit. They should’ve used that 1st rd pick on someone to address that problem. Patrick Queen at MLB was right there for the taking at 26. 

I would feel bad for Rodgers if he wasn’t such a bitch.

Bradlee Anae is the safe pick to start tomorrow, but man, I wouldn't hate taking Jacob Eason

I have zero faith in Eason. I’d take a flier on him in the 6th or 7th just bc of the size and arm strength, but still too many good players still on the board in the 4th rd.

I wouldn't be surprised if Cam Akers was the most productive RB of this draft.  His OL at FSU was atrocious.

You referring to the Lions?Either way I'd agree with MDoT here Eason seems eerily similar to Mallett

So, were any of the draft preview lists close to reality?

Could be,he was supposedly one time a Buckeye lean.He came out the same time as Dobbins but ya he looked all that the limited times I've watched him

I don't hate the Julian Okwara pick, but man Zack Baun is still out there.  I get the steroid issues, but he was a 1st round talent.
Maybe more of an LB or situational edge rusher on Sundays IMO.If the Lions were looking for an LB to stop the run I agree Braun should have been the pick

New England trades up to #60 and takes Josh Uche from Michigan. That’s a player that is a perfect fit for that scheme.
If that was a glaring need, kind of a tweener.92.3 radio said he had like 15 sacks his last 2 seasons.As long as he can beat the big uglies off the edge he'll be OK.Decent rushing/covering doesn't want to get caught in the scrum though

Maybe someone answered, but are these late round picks likely to make the roster?

I guess each team adds seven players on average, so it's possible they could lose 7 players and simply do a straight replacement of course.

Also: Raiders drafting WR’s only. Makes total sense. Not.
This was the horror story of being a Browns Fan.Back in 2016 I believe,Haslem hires Depotesta and some Harvard guys being impressed by IVY league pedigree.Thinking Noll/Walsh/Johnson/Belichick didn't need that.Anyway what do these luminaries do?Draft 4 WRs and a TE with holes all over the roster - the faithful were livid.Rashad Higgins is the only one left of them and he plays sparingly from 4 fookin' years ago.Art Modell looks like Curly Lambeau next to this lump Haslem

Sure there are keepers but after the 4/5th round you have to get a little lucky.Johnny Unitas was unsigned and cut by Pittsburgh that's when they had I think 17 rds.Obviously Brady was picked in the 6th,Montana in the 3rd.So 3 of the top QBs of all time weren't day one pix
